Is Kirwin Opposing the Rock
Island.


It is currently reported IN Phillips
burg that certain citizens Of Kirwin are
working with might and main to de-
feat the Railroad Bonds in Plum and
Arcade township. We do not say that
such reports are true, but good trust
worthy citizens claim such is the fact.
Now it Is said that Kirwin would give
100000 u have The Rock Island come
to that town, but could get no propO-
silion from the officials. This being so,
10 there any intelligent citizen Of Arcade
or Plum who does not ''see through
and fully understand KirWin's opPosi-
ton? 1t is clear to all that the Kirwin
folks think that the new towns 20 be
established in Plum and Arcade, will
cut off their northern trade. The PEG
pie Of I1irwin are not to be severely
censured for trying TO defeat the bonds
and preventing the building Of the road
north OF them. Indeed, it is quite nat
ural that they should so act, Tor no one
can dispute the fact that good, lively,
rustling towns in Plum and Arcade full,
of stores and grain houses, lumber
yards, &C., would in q measure hurt
the trade Of Krwin, but the country is
new, many railroads are yet to be con-
structed and Eirwin, like other towns
every where, must take its chances.
But after all the disadvantage to Kirwin
Of running a road north Of that place
may not be so great as they anticipate.
! Our sister town is well established, has
/ already one railroad, contains num-
/ Der Of lVide-awake, energetic and public
spirited citizens. 1t is q good town and
win steadily grow better, and while it
will suffer in some respects from the
building Of the Rock Island north of it.,
it viii be helped and benefited in many
other respects. The HERALD has no
filings to make at the good people Of Kir-
win. 1t seems quite natural, that haV-
ing their splendid offer to the Rock Is
land rejected, they should be somewhat
alarmed at the situation and would try
to SO influence Plum and Arcade that
those townships would vote down the
bonds, and thus prevent the planting OF
two towns so near them; bat while we
say this for Kirwin, we must also say
that it will be strange if the intelligent
farmers Of Plum and Arcade can be so
blinded to their own interests, as to be
Influenced to defeat the bonds and by
that act defeat themselves. Even if the
road should be built, there will be no
stations in townships which go against
The bonds.
Phillipsburg herald. [volume] (Phillipsburg, Kan.) 1882-1905, 1887-03-26

We are informed that in some of the
townships called upon to vote aid to the
Rock Island, that there is considerable
strife over the depot or town site que5-
ton. One gentleman remarked to us
that every man in the township wanted
the station on his farm Now it is
very unfortunate that such a contro-
versy has grown up. There can be but
one station IN any one township, and
the proper way for the people Of those
township to do, Is to vote for the bonds
and settle those local questions after
wards. The location of the depot can
not be determined now anyway. The
officers Of the road are the only parties
wko can settle the depot question. No
amount Of wrangling on the part of the
citizens will help the matter a particle
while if the bonds are not carried, there
will be no town at all in those town
ships defeating the bonds. TIE dog in
the manger policy" viii have but one
effect, and that is TO prevent the loca-
ton of a station in those townships.
Gentlemen, drop your disputes, unite
as one man for the bonds, and after the
bonds are carried, bring your -argu-
ments TO Gear on the proper railroad
officials as to the merits Of each partic-
ular locality desiring a station.

The reduction of Internal revenue
and the taking of of revenue stamps
from Proprietary Medicines, no doubt
has largely benefited the consumers,
rs we'll as relieving the burden of
home manufacturers. Especially is
this the case with Green's August
Flower and B0schee's German Syrup,
as the reduction of Lhirty-siN cents per
dozen, has been added to increase the
size of the bottles containing these
remedies, thereby giving One-fuh
more medicine ia the 10 cent size.
The August Flower for Dyspepsia and
Liver Complaint, and the German
syrup for cough and lung troubles,
have perhaps, the largest sale of any
medicines in the world. The advan-
tage of increased size of the bottles
will be greatly appreciated by the sick
and afflicted, in every town and vii
lagc in civilized countries. Sample
bottles for 10 cents remain the same
size. marc

The Erwin Independent on Ou1
Railroad.

The KirWln Independent on Our
Railroad.
The people Of those townships ought 10 have @
railroad, but we give them credit for too much
sense 70 bulld road ana then give 1t away TO De
used as Il club 70 mash their own heads. In a very
few years Kansas people VIII be building their
own railroads, ana corporation strikers VIII DE
roasting iu hades, where they belong, and then
the country VIII progress apace.
We have no personal acquaintance
with Mr.. Lamb, editor Of the Indepen-
dent, but take ii for granted that he is
fair minded journalist who would
not Intentionally mislead or deceive his
readers. However, when he says the
people of this county are called upon
"to build a railroad and then give it
away we cannot but think he is jok-
ing or very careless in his statements.
As we have fully explained in another
place the people are not asked to GIVE
anything. The bonds are in no proper
sense a gift. In the long run the people
get back ia taxes alone more than the
bonds amount to. Under the state law,
the Company must Issue to the town
ships certificates of stock equal in
amount to the bonds voted, dollar for
dollar All this being so, it is readily
seen that the Independent editor is o
practical joker, or very loose in his
statements. Railroad managers have
sometimes done wrong. Some of them
may be ''roasting in Hades," but rail
roads, when properly managed, are a
great blessing, to the people. There is
reason in all things, and this blind IN
reasoning, rabid opposition to rail
roads is not wise. In time we believe
that the general government will own
and operate the railways Of this country
and the writer sees no serious objection
TO that plan, but the country is not
ready yet to adopt that system, and
win not be for many years We must
take things as we find them. and secure
our railroads in the manner that other
communities have secured theirs. Let
US have no sophistry nor false dealing
in this matter, but candid, open, aud
frank investigation Of the subject in all
its details.
